Week of November 2, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week's changes focus on making the native PromQL path usable in distributed deployments and on storage read and compaction efficiency. Users of JSON columns get fulltext indexing on JSON paths, and several fixes address compaction, manifest caching and region editing behavior that could interrupt routine operations.

Post for X

This week in GreptimeDB: native raw PromQL runs over real datanodes, fulltext indexes on JSON paths, native histogram queries on the native PromQL route, fairer compaction scheduling across regions, and dashboard v0.14.3.

Post for LinkedIn

This week in GreptimeDB: native raw PromQL now executes over real datanodes, and native histograms can be queried through the same native route. Fulltext indexes are now supported on JSON paths. On storage, compaction units are scheduled fairly across regions and bulk memtable compaction shares one dispatcher across workers. The datanode drain admin endpoint accepts parallelism and strategy settings, frontend SQL requests can carry an optional timezone, and the bundled dashboard is updated to v0.14.3. Fixes include region ALTER priority over queued edits and decoding of cached manifest payloads on region reopen.

Week of October 26, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brought a new stable release, v1.3.0, which adds native histogram ingestion, a semantic entity graph over metrics and traces, an opt-in trace schema with JSON2 attributes, and automatic retries for distributed writes. Alongside it, fixes landed for SQL and PromQL correctness, sparse primary key enforcement, remote compaction index preservation, and remote write v2 accounting, and a logfmt processor plus line protocol ingest over PostgreSQL COPY broaden how logs and metrics get in.

GreptimeDB v1.3.0 is out: native histogram ingestion, a semantic entity graph over metrics and traces, an opt-in trace schema with JSON2 attributes, and automatic retries for distributed writes. Also this week: a logfmt pipeline processor and InfluxDB line protocol ingest via COP

Post for LinkedIn

GreptimeDB v1.3.0 is released. It adds native histogram ingestion, a semantic entity graph over metrics and traces, an opt-in trace schema with JSON2 attributes, and automatic retries for distributed writes. The release also fixes incorrect SQL and PromQL results and write routing during scaling. Other changes this week: a built-in logfmt pipeline processor, InfluxDB line protocol ingest through PostgreSQL COPY FROM STDIN, object storage probing at datanode startup, and pipelined compaction that overlaps merge with encoding. Fixes cover memory and acknowledgement accounting in Prometheus remote write v2, preservation of live index files across remote compactions, and stale leader grants after a region downgrade.

Week of October 19, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week the native PromQL path moved from compiling expressions to actually running real statements through the production planner, with aggregates, histograms, topk-style operators and new range modifiers covered. Users also get a faster log-store recovery path, safer SST handling on manifest save failures, more flexible pipeline ingestion into JSON columns, and environment-based region engine configuration.

Changelog entry

Example posts FoxPlug drafted from these changes. Not written or posted by the project.

Post for X

This week: PromQL statements run through the fused native node in the production planner; complete aggregation over parallel partitions; histogram, topk and range modifier support; faster log-store recovery; safer SST retention; pipeline JSON column fixes.

Post for LinkedIn

This week in GreptimeDB: real PromQL statements now reach the fused native node and run through the production planner, starting with rate and nested expressions while unsupported shapes keep their existing plan. The native path also gained complete aggregation over parallel fused partitions, native histogram functions as map operations, topk and related operators in the vector node, and the anchored and smoothed range modifiers. Elsewhere, log-store recovery reads object store WAL footers while the recovery listing continues, mito2 keeps SSTs when a manifest save ends with RateLimited or PermissionDenied, pipelines accept auto-transformed arrays and objects into existing JSON columns, and region engine options can be overridden from environment variables.

Week of October 12, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week moves a native PromQL execution path forward across query traits, the datanode trait, scanners and instant evaluation, and it is still behind an experimental option. Log-store WAL work reduces cost that scaled with region count, and failover, OTLP ingest and trace encoding get fixes that affect production behavior.

Changelog entry

Example posts FoxPlug drafted from these changes. Not written or posted by the project.

Post for X

This week: experimental_native_promql option, native instant PromQL over raw series, a scan-bound raw series surface, and log-store WAL work that no longer scales reclaim with region count.

Post for LinkedIn

This week in GreptimeDB: an experimental_native_promql option (off by default) plus native instant PromQL execution over raw series, with preflight and execution surfaces added across query traits, the datanode trait and region scanners. Log-store WAL work makes the object store reclaim boundary independent of region count and reuses release records during recovery. Failover can fall back on affinity, OTLP trace spans are chunked across resource groups, and columns can now choose an encoding, used for trace span ids.

Week of October 5, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brought fixes across query correctness, ingestion and storage behavior. PromQL instant queries of range-vector expressions no longer crash, boolean OTLP metric attributes no longer merge distinct data points, and TWCS window assignment was corrected. Storage and metadata side work also advanced, with object store WAL garbage collection and several metasrv reliability fixes.

This week: instant queries of range-vector expressions no longer crash, boolean OTLP metric attributes are kept as labels, TWCS windows were aligned, and object store WAL garbage collection landed.

Post for LinkedIn

This week in GreptimeDB: instant queries of range-vector expressions now return results instead of crashing, boolean OTLP metric attributes are converted into labels rather than dropped, and TWCS assignment now follows half-open time windows. On the storage side, the object store WAL gained garbage collection below a persisted reclaim boundary plus metrics and a conditional-create fault matrix. OTLP trace ingestion now caches service and operation writes, import-v2 batches logical table DDL, and nested MergeScan plans run on the datanode.
